If
Sit with me
If you dare to partake
Delicacies suited for a king
Uncomposed melodies
that compel the heart to sing
Rays of the sun
wrestled from the sky
Secrets of wise men
upon whom I dared to spy
The moist anticipation
purchased from dreamers
with bated breath
Renewed energy reclaimed
after a moment of rest
The sweetness of honey
gifted by the bees
The gentle power of the forest
as trees

Algebra makes me feel stupid.
Equations and inequalities,
algebra makes me feel stupid.
I could have an A in the grade book, but that doesn't mean that I understand.
lost in class, barely turned that in on time.
Algebra makes me feel stupid.
So I drift into my own world.
But at least in my world, I'm not alone.
Algebra makes

Gifted
Gifted.
A round clay grey chalice
just outside the kitchen door
filled to the brim
with dark brown nurture,
frothy feather greens trimmed.
She eats the fresh smells
with all her secret senses...
Even her ears hear subtle
strong notes as she chews the cud
breaking down her defenses.
Handed some leaves in a bag-
not big enough to contain
her gratitude and pleasure...
buries her face

I Gifted My Nephew a Book
I gifted my nephew a book.
He’s going to admire the colors and the happy faces inside
while the words are read to him by someone more senior.
He will point out the pumpkins, the kittens, the rainbows
and smile ear to ear with excitement and laughter.
He will reach out to turn the cardboard pages
before the sentence is even

Gifted Students are Not Compliant Rule Followers
teacher's pet
she is an obedient student
compliant
rule follower
teacher refers her to gifted program
her intelligence score is mediocre
compliance does not mean gifted
but how many of us know this?
off the chain student
teachers argue against him receiving gifted services
he is a class disturbance
often off the wall behavior
wild, uninhibited; a strange thinker
his intelligent score is through the roof
wants everything to

Powerful Gifted
Wealth immunity is a material possession
of the physical body,
happiness is a mentality
of the conscious
put in place by the soul that delivers the deed,
there is no weakness where there is need,
and there is no status to the man with greed,
power is gifted until the powerful fall
when judgement is

GIFTED MAN
Walking in my life,
I met one life,
Of one man life.
I like his life
He speak about life,
Example life of wife
I like his face,
It shows how confidence,
Speaking with evidence.
Tone of his voice,
When giving you advice,
Like he has merchandise.
He has a lot of chance,
Which shows his experience,
Especially when problem face.
If directs his finger,
You are in danger,
You should

Else, all are gifted
One's born with brain inherited,
Or gets made with a lot lifted.
It’s not what can one quote,
How much his be of note,
Or else everyone is gifted!

Gifted by nature
Don’t cry beloved mother
Your children pride in you like no other
They wonder why you are called a dark continent
blooming with beauty and splendor every moment
They have got you, they don’t need another
So blessed to have you as their mother
You are gifted by nature

Who's Broken
With eyes of grey, no longer whole the cross you bare - to see no more.
That’s what I see as I look on and so I start to write this song.
Your body broke, bound to a chair. Up at the world you’re forced to stare
and watch from sidelines day to day. Then fall the verses

All people are Gifted
My words are to those who mock people and think others they can out smart. It seems that their ego has far wondered, and their thoughts have drifted apart.
You may find wisdom in a fools wordings, or even in the words of the insane. And you may find ignorance in the words of scholars, even

A Gifted Pen
If I gave you a pen
as a gift from my heart
to write me the words of a song,
one I might hum
to a soft ballad strum
and knew you’d be singing along?
Would you sing it to me
till the last of our days
with the Spring morning heart of a wren?
I want to know
how the heart truly glows
from the

A Gifted Moment
A moment gifted by nature's mother
Frozen still- we both stared
No doubt, who will break first- crossed both our minds
His tail that quickly rose, drooped- adagio
He feared me not, nor I- him
With the sun beaming through the leafless trees,
his majestic antlers hid well
He stood- like Rudolph- on steroids
